"...what's with the decimals without leading zeroes and the incorrect number of digits (ie .5 instead of 0.50 etc)!?"


I could understand the spaces for readability issues, but padding 0s? Who cares?

"There are a few typos in the Quadrant type description with "nebualaes"."

That appears to be inherited from the stock typo in the Ancient quadrant description.

"some are almost a mismatch. I guess this is the nature of planets and atmospheres."


MM screwed the pooch and did not follow any sort of consistent color guide for mapping planet textures to atmospheres. There are Methane planets that are blue and practically indistinguishable from O2 planets, for example.

"What about other atmosphere types- Is it a lot of changes to add?"

Not really difficult. It just requires having sets of textures to use for each type...
